An impactful story that is funny and insightful. I found Ale so relatable, her thoughts and her Aletude was so refreshing. A story that I'll come back to time and time again for a laugh and a good cry. Plus there were so many lines that I just wanted to highlight and re-read because they speak volumes. The fact that the author was able to write such an insightful story as well as keep my attention is amazing. Truly a work of work.

One of my favorite volumes so far. I loved learning more about Qifrey and there are sooo many beautiful illustrations that I just want to stop and frame them all! Coco is also just the sweetest and she's come so far in this chapter.
